...is a rising Afrobeats artist taking the game by storm. Insta, tweet and stalk her @sotiofficial.

Right now Soti is high on my people I want to style list. Why? Cos attitude gyalllllll. I really want to bring out a different side to Sotonye through style. If you've heard me say "misbehaveee", then you might understand this a little better.

Misbehave represents letting go of all care and worries and just living in the moment. Smile, laugh, pose, cry, whatever. Live fiercely in that moment. Days I truly feel to misbehave are days when my outfit is on point, my skins glowing and the motive is lit.

So who better to project that misbehaviour onto than Soti?

K Boom, so here's how I'd style Soti.

This might just become a series, so we'll start with "Airport Fashion" - y'know the ones where the pappz snap photos of you trying to leave the country and you act like you didn't expect it.

Look 1

For added "I-just-threw-this-on'ness" I'd have her in Fenty slides with a mini backpack.

I always start talking about hair but never continue lol- but for her hair I'd want her in a ponytail pulled back through a baseball cap (y'know the whole I'm-trying-to-be inconspicuous-but-not-really look). Complete with oversized sunglasses.

For a more modest look; I'd keep the t-shirt cropped. Tuck in a full length white shirt and swap the skinny jeans for a maxi pencil skirt.

K. Now to try and find the pieces for this look. Lawls.

White Crop Shirt

(Google searched for this. It's no longer available for purchase on ASOS). Style tip, undo the cuffs let the sleeves hang.

Soti has a small round face, so I'd stick her in cat eye sunglasses for some added dimension. (lol I just added that dimension stuff to sound professional. But nah, cat eye suits small faces better than round lenses, especially if you have cheeks)

Airport fashion look 3 -

The comfortable two piece/co-ord look. Something you just throw on without having to worry too much about or iron. Usually sweats, cable knitts or jersey. Velour's making a comeback so that'd work too. I'd sit her in a two piece, flat-top hat with a wide brim, sliders (of course) and off we go. It's the perfect I woke up like this look, barely any make up required. You don't even have to brush your hair/iron your scarf. Add a cute clutch, and away we go.
